Dreams Riviera Cancun - Brides post here (new thread)

Hi Everyone

 

My wedding is April 24th and as of right now both the ceremony and reception are scheduled to be on the beach but I'm having doubts now about having the reception of the beach. I've always dreamed about having the reception right on the beach under candlelight but several people have said that it's too windy. I was wondering if anyone knows first hand if its really windy at the end of april on the beach at night time. As much as I would like to have the reception on the beach there`s no point if sand is going to be blowing into peoples food and if all the candles will get blown out.

 

Thanks!

Super quick question. I am having my ceremony on the Beach. Does anyone know that name of the Beach? I'm trying to order my invites tonight and I would like to put the name of the Beach on there. Thanks!! Kate

North or south beach. I chose North beach...due to reviews on here...seems more private.

You need to make the appointment.  I asked my coordinator and she put me in touch with Veronica in the spa.  She made all my appointments and sent me the invoice for my girls.  

You definitely need to make appointment yourself. I plan on doing 4 to6weeks out. Plan on confirming in person the day we arrive. W

I'm going to try making my own bouquet from shells, like another bride on here is doing. I'm using this picture as my inspiration:

Daizee. Thank for sharing your photos, they look amazing.  Who was your photographer?

It's a wooden frame so my dad drilled a big hole on top and we bought a funnel from Michaels to pour the sand into. - Reception Location: We had it at the Seaside Grill. This was a perfect location because the resort has so many parties that you would want a separation from the other events (noise issue). It also gets really windy at night so there is a potential for sand to get into your food if you have it outdoors on the beach or pool deck. We originally wanted the pool deck but they messed up and gave it to someone else by mistake. I threw a fit and got our travel agent involved so we ended up getting the Seaside Grill for free. It would have cost $15 per person + 11% tax. - Groom & Groomsmen suits: I live in New York so we bought them from an Italian suite store which we just ran into randomly. We got lucky because we purchased them during the winter so they had a major clearance. $1,200 suits reduced to $300 so we bought 6 of them. If you are in Manhattan, let me know and I will give you the address. I believe they still carry them. Not sure what the color is..I think it's cream leaning toward the yellow side.

I did a boudoir photo shoot and am placing all the photos in an album.  I asked the photographer to take a picture of his reaction. lol
